You mean this guy? ... never heard of him. Might your name be ... Mike???

Love Omaha. Finishing up an MD/PhD here soon. KC has better options for the next step in my training and puts me a little closer to family. I’ll keep an eye on the Overland Park area.

Thanks for the info. Can’t really expand my search to beyond, 25 minutes. I am already pushing it at 25 minutes. I will be starting residency at KUMC and will have to be close for days I am on call which will be every 3rd day. The max of our budget will be less than $300k. $250k sounds much more comfortable. Much prefer suburban to urban. A 3-4 bedroom/ 2+ bathroom house with a 3 car garage would be ideal, but probably unrealistic or unlikely, given the parameters. It looks like the Gardner area would be a bit out of range.

I will be here in Omaha until at least May. Plenty of time between ice-out and the time I move to share what I know... Ice-out is so close!

Sounds like a place that fits my parameters...

I will be moving to Kansas City in the late Spring and am wanting to start getting a sense of the housing market. If you could pick an area/surrounding city to live, where would you start looking? My only necessary restriction is that I have to be less than 25 minutes away from the KUMC hospital under ideal traffic conditions (early mornings/late at night). Obviously, I would like to be as close to a productive body of water as possible, somewhere I could drop the boat in a < 10 minute drive from where I would live. Currently, I have been looking at the area near Wyandotte County Lake and the area ~halfway between Longview Lake or Jacomo. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions to areas they would live? Thanks.

The extreme response is likely primarily based on several factors. 1) Uncertainty - the current burden and natural course of this virus is unknown. China is a densely populated country and there is good reason to believe (economic being one of them) that China has underestimated and/or downplayed the burden of the disease. Also, we only have information about months at max of what will happen with the virus. 2) Another burden even equal to the size of the flu is a huge burden. The flu places a huge morbidity, mortality and economic burden on the world. The possibility of that burden being duplicated is absolutely demanding of a sense of urgency and drastic measures to stop that. The potential economic ramifications of duplicating the flu burden are far more than whatever short term ramifications may come from the current “panic.” 3) The incubation period of the virus is long and silent. A person can carry and be contagious with the virus for up to two weeks before showing symptoms. This means the virus can spread extremely rapidly without detection. Hopefully, spread and burden of this virus will be stopped and it will be just another (less severe) SARS or MERS of the past. For now though, given what little we know of it, high alert and drastic measures to prevent the spread are extremely important. For now it is a prepare for the worst, hope for the best situation. I agree people SHOULD be concerned about the flu and agree that the media has well taken advantage to hype the coronavirus for views. However, as stated above even duplicating the flu would have severe ramifications and extreme measures should be taken to prevent that. Based on what has happened in China, this is not a virus we want to spread unchecked.

The primary difference is the "+" function. The "+" function allows for 2 specific things: 1) To makes full use of the SI+/DI+ transducers, which produce "20% better image quality." and 2), IMO more importantly, compatibility with MEGA 360. The Gen 1 units are NOT compatible with Mega 360. All of the "Link" and network features can be performed by ALL generation Solix units as of now.

There are a couple of hard baits that I buy in mass quantity. I order these directly from the manufacturer and only ~5 at a time, where as the rest sit in the box they were shipped in until its time to restock. As far as all others baits are concerned, they get opened, fondled and usually tied onto a rod, hung on the "on deck" rack under my boat lid or placed neatly into their respective tackle tray.

Lots of people use the Duracell for their cranking battery and their trolling battery. I do and it works fantastic for both. That being said, some of the bigger motors require a few more cranking amps than the Duracell supplies due to its dual purpose nature. My 125 HP Mercury, however, doesn’t hesitate at all using the Duracell as a cranking battery. I also run 3 big graphs, powerpoles, a Humminbird 360, an Ethernet switch and a Hydrowave off of the same battery and have fished for >12 hours at a time on several occasions and never had an issue starting the motor. That’s only after 1 season though, but I don’t expect much to change for at least 2 or more seasons.

There is also misinformation in the current ad, it may be a draft though. On the ad for the G3 Helix 7 is says that it is Mega 360 compatible and that is not true.

A small Phillips screwdriver is what I use. Doesn’t even have to be precision small.

I think like $18 bucks using a tube I already had. There are some tricks to not pay a fortune to ship a rod. <96” tube and print the label yourself are the main things.

The epoxy started cracking on one of my Tatula Elite rods and they sent me a brand new rod, no questions asked after I sent in the repair/warranty form.

Something caused (accidental) by manipulation of the fish by the researcher seems equally logical.

Woo buddy! Better jump on that one quick!

Lots of reasons to make up that one time of day is better than the other. Truth is, it likely varies day to day and from body of water. I like fishing mornings. Bass have a unique advantage of great vision in the low light compared to other fishes so I have convinced myself morning is a great time to catch them. I also like to think it’s easier to find them in the mornings, because I like to believe they accumulate on the warmest part of the lake before the sun starts to warm up other things. Rocks and cement hold heat about the best so I figure the bass all group up there until the sun gets bright and warm. Fishing rip rap and rock piles has worked out pretty well for me on cool spring mornings.

Growing up fishing the rivers in Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri there were several instances where a snake would jump out of a tree into our canoe. Talk about a rush.

Look for a late 90’s Ranger R series. They are quality boats and will fall in your price range.

I first read this as hand sanded and painted by a five-year-old.

Very interested!

You mean Vienna sausages? Haha

I ordered a couple of the colors that are not back ordered. Will take some pictures and report here when I get them. I don’t have any Uncle Josh to compare, however.

Harbor freight also frequently has a flier to get one of these free with a purchase of something else.
